NewsMertens Frames Project Space by Plan B presents I WANNA BE LIKE YOU-OO-OO by Fabian Reichle For ‘I wanna be like you-oo-oo’ Fabian Reichle is exploring the influence of artists he looks up to by copying their works. What he aims to find is a point between the deliberate choice of copying them and the unintentional impact they have on his creativity. By choosing the word ‘copying’ to describe his activities, he no longer fears to be denounced or frowned upon and accepts his existence as a channel. New to the art world, as a maker, he desperately tries to be like someone else. This experiment also aims to help him overcome his naïve fandom. Finding himself at the end of his art education (M.A. at Sandberg Instituut) he examines himself as a filter to see which influences stick, in which way and how they function as an inspiration shaping a personal style or signature. If an umbilical chord would be what keeps him close to his idols, when would be the time to cut loose? Friday April 26, 17.00 – 21.00: Opening |  |
